Tailwind Nutrition has confirmed that it will be sponsoring several Bike MS events this season. Additionally, the Colorado-based sports nutrition brand will be attending the event to support and cheer on para-athlete Liz Gasson, who is training to compete in the LA 2028 Paralympic Games.
Bike MS supports the Multiple Sclerosis Society of America’s mission to cure MS while aiming to empower those suffering from MS.
“We are proud to support the Bike MS community and are especially rallying behind Liz, a Tailwind athlete and Paralympic candidate,” said Tailwind co-founder Jenny Viering.
“Liz exhibits all of the athletic qualities that Tailwind represents and is an all-around great human being. Her perseverance and positive mindset in the face of adversity is admirable. I’m glad the product is helping fuel her needs as an athlete, and I hope it inspires others to chase their big dreams with Liz and Bike. I look forward to accompanying you on your MS journey.”
Liz Gasson says: “Tailwind’s way of making endurance fuel means I can get the fuel I need during a race and it won’t negatively impact my digestion. It’s perfect! Tailwind believes in me and supports me.” It has given me a lot of emotional and mental support. It’s a big deal for me.”
Gasson will be participating in a Bike MS event for the first time this year. “I don’t know if I can adequately express in words how much this event has meant to me. Having MS has cost me so much in life, but to be honest, I have lost so much more in my life. I can say that I gained a lot.
“My coaches, the cycling community, my MS family, and my Tailwind family are all very important family extensions to me. They saved my life in many ways. ” Gasson said. “I am extremely grateful and proud to be a part of this journey with them.”
Tailwind will be participating in the following Bike MS events in 2024:
- Ride in the Vineyard (May 4th-5th)
- Coast the Coast (Deal, New Jersey) (May 11)
- Los Angeles Coastal Challenge (June 1st)
- MS 150 Minnesota (June 8)
